I propose a four-legged 6x6m platform shelter with a ladder so you can picnic on top.

Southerly: One Hundred and Thirty-one…, in reply to Jeremy Andrew,
two cyclists bowled in two separate incidents today in Hamilton, one dead.
I just heard the sad news today that my PhD supervisor from my Canterbury University days, Jack Fergusson, was killed in a cycling accident yesterday in Christchurch. He was 77 and cycled a lot around Christcurch.
Sorry to introduce a sombre note into the conversation.
I'm a keen cyclist myself - both on and off road - but the safety aspect does scare me quite considerably. My strategy for the road is to be extremely visible, assume every motorist is an idiot and get a rear vision mirror. I think my main strategy for avoiding tumbles off road is "remember you are not an indestructible 21 year old any more and take it easy". -

Maybe 'twas ever thus.
